Snowsurfer™ Forte Candytuft (Iberis sempervirens ‘Snowsurfer’) is a low-growing, evergreen flowering perennial valued for its abundant white spring blossoms and dense, spreading foliage. Its neat, mounding habit makes it an attractive choice for garden edging, rock gardens, perennial borders, slopes, and decorative outdoor containers.
During spring, Snowsurfer™ Forte Candytuft produces clusters of small, four-petaled white flowers that form a bright floral display above its narrow, dark green leaves. The blooms can cover much of the foliage during peak flowering, creating a soft, cushion-like appearance. Its evergreen leaves provide additional texture and structure after the main flowering period has ended.
This ornamental perennial performs best in full sun and well-drained soil. It is particularly suitable for rock gardens and raised planting areas where excess moisture drains away readily. Once established, candytuft is relatively drought tolerant and generally requires low to moderate watering. Its low, spreading growth habit makes it useful along pathways, at the front of borders, and over low garden walls.
Each order includes 1 live Snowsurfer™ Forte Candytuft supplied in a 1-gallon nursery pot (G1).
